On March 6, staff members of the KBS drama 'My Lawyer, Mr Jo 2' suffered a car accident.

The cast and crew were filming a car accident scene involving Go Hyun Jung and Moon Soo Binin the Jung District of Incheon, but the car hit by the stunt truck veered off the intended course, hitting the camera crew. Five staff members were injured and taken to the hospital. It's reported the injuries were not serious, and they've resumed filming.

A rep from KBS stated, "We were filming a car crash scene, and we secured the car with wires to film. The momentum of the car was more forceful than expected, and that's when the accident occurred. We always keep an ambulance, and things land on set. There were no fatal injuries. The people who witnessed the accident were also shocked by what happened, so they are also at the hospital receiving treatment. We apologize to everyone who was involved, and we'll do our best to provide treatment. We'll also make sure this never happens again."

There are more complications, however, as it's reported the filming staff of 'My Lawyer, Mr Jo 2' did not have the permit to film on the road. KBS explained, "The production staff requested permission from police and the district office on Monday, but we were informed it'd take a week to process the request. It's a road with very little traffic, so we spoke to a district office worker. They warned us if they receive a civil complaint, we'd be subject to a penalty. After hearing the warning, we went ahead with filming."
